RUNNERS ASSEMBLE

It was a bright and sunny New York day when we all gathered at the conservancy garden behind the Metropolitan Museum of Art the following afternoon.

We went down into the cavern.

I wore hiking shoes and cargo pants and had brought a backpack with some water, snacks and a small first-aid kit in it. Having seen the world we were venturing into, I wanted to be prepared.

Red had brought a rucksack, inside of which was a bottle of water, some protein bars and a small hacksaw.

Misty, Chastity, Verity and Hattie all wore athletic clothing: yoga pants, sneakers and track tops. Misty’s sneakers were thousand-dollar Golden Gooses. Verity’s were Saint Laurent. Hattie’s tracksuit was a black Lululemon one with gold piping and a shiny gold collar. Misty and Verity had also brought along small handheld SABRE stun guns, while Chastity had some pepper spray.

Dane and Griff also carried packs with water and food in them, and Bo had brought his grappling hook and rope.

Red checked his watch. ‘Time is 1:02 p.m., local time.’

Misty inserted her gem into the pyramid and the rippling light appeared.

‘All right, funsters. Time to rock and roll.’

And with those words, packed and ready for an extended run, one by one, the nine of us entered the portal.
